I am disappointed in this vac-it is much heaver than I expected and somewhat hard to turn and maneuver. Certainly not easy to use.

Before I purchased this vacuum I would or should have looked arround. I notified Amazon that the company was selling factory direct almost $100. less. Amazon dismissed the overpricing by saying they didn’t have time to check every item. They do not have a price matching policy. Be careful this is a great vacuum; however, be more through in checking prices. I could have returned it w/o opening and purchased from another dealer. I suppose Amazon would rather go through this process. I used to brag Amazon, now I will not blindly trust them to be the least expensive.

I clean homes for a living, so I’ve had opportunities to try quite a few vacuum cleaner designs. One customer has a Dyson – a somewhat older design than this listing’s offering, which I used for several hours yesterday. I found that switching from the upright mode to the hose mode is made unnecessarily awkward by the vacuum’s design. The wand’s full length is supposed to fit inside the hose for storage and half the time I’d need to store it, it would snag inside the ridges on the plastic hose and I’d have to remove it and start over. There’s no switch to change the suction from the upright mode to the hose, you must have the wand and hose combination completely stowed on the upright in order to activate the upright mode’s suction. This necessity is quite frustrating when moving around a home to vacuum under-bed areas and corners which require the hose, to area rugs in the center of the room, which require the upright. Also, the machine is poorly balanced and tipped over repeatedly (once on my head) as I maneuvered the hose to reach beneath beds and into recessed corners. Fortunately, the home was all on one level, as this machine was surprisingly heavy for it’s slim size. Although, as I said, the one I used seemed not to be this year’s model, I would not buy a vacuum from this manufacturer after experiencing design problems that made it so difficult to use. I’m surprised at the high price for this machine, and I’d recommend a better designed and lighter Meile vacuum to anyone who has so much money to spend.
